Forum ‹ GameFS ‹ Is GameFS still working?

[robertflesch]

The GameFS web page locks up if I right click and try to use any of the commands from within Chrome Version 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit)
ie. Edit, delete, etc

When I try to go in with CyberDuck(current version) using SFTP protocol.
I get a socket disconnect error after logging in.
I had been using a different server for a couple of years, but I want to see if I could consolidate everything here.
Only two options and neither appears to work for me.

I tried just now with that version of Chrome, and with an SFTP client, and both worked fine for me?

The SFTP password is not the same as your account password, you have to set it/change it on the SFTP tab on the GameFS page, but if that page locks up, it's a bit hard to get to...

What happens if you try a different browser?

[robertflesch]

It appears to work in FireFox
Tried again in Chrome and no luck, Chrome for Windows 10.
Still unable to access it using CyberDuck after resetting password.

Are you getting any error messages out of Cyberduck? What happens if you try WinSCP instead? It's the SFTP client I was using and had no issues with.

[robertflesch]

Was just trying WinSCP (which I have used for years).
Now I can't get the password to work at all. I can't even change the password.
Which makes no sense since I keep a list of passwords, included deprecated ones.
And I see no mechanism for resetting the SFTP password!

Hey,

I forgot how that part worked, had to go digging in the code, and it turns out that you can only use the SFTP server if you are on a paid plan. On the free plan you only get the web interface. (We should probably fix that...)

I have no idea why the web interface doesn't work for you in Chrome. Do you have any addons or greasemonkey scripts or similar that might interfere? There's a small Flash component that does file transfers for the web interface, maybe that's the part that's not working?

[robertflesch]

Thx Henrik

Ah, that is indeed why the SFTP thru CyberDuck and WinSCP doesn't work.
I had forgotten about the pay only part, and it was not documented anywhere.

As for Chrome, I have the debug Chrome player installed, and uBlock.

Thanks for your assistance.

We lifted the restrictions on the SFTP server, so anyone can use that now. If you try it again it should work for you.
